   Sass & Smallheiser become leading tenement designers in the district, building 73 and 75 Thompson Street in 1901

   Around 1900 and 1901, two architectural firms came to dominate the design of old-law tenements in the Sullivan-Thompson area. One was Sass & Smallheiser, whose district work included 110 Thompson Street in 1900 and the neighboring pair at 73 and 75 Thompson Street in 1901. The other was Michael Bernstein, who designed seven tenements there.

   This six-story Renaissance Revival tenement of 1901, designed by Sass & Smallheiser for Robert Friedman, mirrors its neighbor at number 73 with splayed lintels, oversized keystones and top-floor pilasters. A pressed-metal cornice with brackets, a paneled frieze and big dentils tops the brick facade. Its decorative fire escape dates from the original construction, and later work modernized the storefront and replaced the windows.
